Scotty Cameron PGA Louiville putter cover

I was disappointed to miss out on the new Scotty Cameron putter cover release yesterday. I logged on within 5 minutes of getting the email of the release, only to see all of the putter versions were sold out. A venture to ebay within an hour saw numerous already listed.

I know this has been discussed before, but it is so discouraging. Really wanted one since my wife is from KY, and the release was in the form of a race horse and my daughter rides, but I digress.

I know the feeling. I've been trying to get a new Futura cover, but they go in the blink of an eye. As much as it's frustrating to see them immediately re sold, I'm not going to complain. It's just how our free-market works. Anything that rare with as much demand as Scotty covers have will bring a premium on the secondary market. However, it seems Scotty released a few covers this year with a much larger number of covers available. At least one or two made it to the public release. As frustrating as it is sometimes, it makes getting a cover that much more special.

Here's a little tip and trend over noticed over the years. I do apologize in advance if you already know this

If you're a Scotty Cameron member, I've noticed they always send the emails on a Tuesday between 12 and 1 ET. So depending on the cover, i'll be sitting at my computer refreshing the Scotty Cameron page until i see new releases. How do i know the cover? Golf WRX always post a picture that Monday of what the new cover is.

I know it's a waste to sit there for an hour but that's been the only time i've been able to get a head cover.

If you're not a member, then it's a lot tougher.

I had the chance of getting the horse cover but my wife is getting tired of all the head covers around the house...

Guess next release, I better be on within 1 minute.

If the reported number- 2,014 of the blade version- is correct, then it goes to show just how popular Scotty Cameron releases are. And given that number, the fact that less than 100 have attempted to be re sold shows that there is a nice community of Cameron collectors.

Speaking of which, you might want to check out The Cameron Collector. While we don't have inside info, several of us alerted others that the "New Release" tab was up and within minutes the release was up. While it doesn't always work that quickly, I've been able to alert folks to the Web.com Tour Nova Scoita release and the PGA release through the site.

Also, get the Cameron release tweet. You don't need to be on twitter- I have alerts sent at texts to me. Texts come out faster than emails- I didn't receive the email about the release till 4 minutes after I'd checked out (12:21 was my confirmation email from the store; 12:25 I received the email from the store announcing the sale).

I would agree with those tips. I didn't realize you could see it on Golf WRX on Mondays, but then again, I've never looked. But I have been able to get in a purchase something before the email or tweet even went out just be dumb luck by being on the site when the new products went live.

Thanks for the tip Christopher. I am a member, and have gotten a lot of Scotty goodies, but this one was just a bit more special for me. I did score one last night for not much of a premium.

I will begin checking golfwrx more often. Even had I known, my son wanted to go to the shooting range and fire off a few rounds, so I would probably have not been on immediately anyway. Just dumb luck that I missed it by 5 minutes.
